I never realized how much I actually "enjoyed" sleep until after Katie was born. All those nights in a row of getting only 2-4 hours of VERY interrupted sleep at night really made me stupid! I am happy to say that Kasey is doing much better in the sleep department. He has been consistently sleeping 6-8 hours every night! Woo Hoo! The only bad part of this is that he usually falls asleep between 7:00-8:00, so he is ready to party at like 2:30am. I can usually get in about 4 or 5 hours in so I am a bit more coherent this time around. Katie still likes to wake up in the middle night about 3 nights a week - usually because she has "sneezers".
I was awakened this morning by Katie yelling at me from her bedroom "wake up, Mommy!! Wake up! (sneeze, sneeze, cough, sneeze) I have sneezers, mommy!" Alright, alright...I'm up. I think I need to create some sort of hover craft tissue holder that floats near Katie at all times. It's like she forgets where the tissues are after she falls asleep...."Katie, get out of your bed, go into the bathroom and get a tissue." "Okay, mama." Done deal. But now that I am up, let's go get some breakfast!
It's FRIDAY! I am ready for the weekend. Maybe we will plant some more flowers out in the backyard tomorrow. It is supposed to be storming this weekend, but that's what was predicted last weekend too and we were able to plant lots of flowers as there was not a cloud in the sky. If it is crappy outside, I think we will need to tackle Katie's messy room...
